Has anyone built the garbage truck fro the Bits of Mayhem set? I was going though it this morning and found some issues with the rear section. Iwas gluing up the lowest part of main blue garbage container and found a n lignment issue. So I assumed that I had either scored poorly or that my printer had stretched/shrunk a section of the page (which had happened inthe past). So I went into photoshop and measured out the adjoining faces and found that they are not the same length.

As well I had another 'size' issue when I went to insert the inverted box that holds the garbage. There are 2 flaps with tail lights. The tail light flap on one side is nearly 1mm wider than the other.

Anyone else notice this or am I just crazy?

I got mine together ok. It didn't fit "perfectly". But I assumed due to the odd nature of its contruction(odd to me I'm sure) I simply did something (like a poor cut or fold) out of tolerance to the build specs. I never looked into any closer. But I will.

That particular piece is somewhat snug in the garbage hole end to be sure but I can't really understand the discrepancies you're describing. It could well be another wonky printer issue.

Here are images showing what I'm taling about.

A does not equal B in length:


And C does not equal D:

Hmmm... Well I don't know what to tell you. Mine came out alright and it's the same file. Every effort is made on the production end to ensure the product is as uniform as possible. This is the first I've heard of this particular issue though. It could be that what amounts to a relatively minor graphics issue is being made into a major one by your printer.
